Dam Calm

After a long lie-in, and two hours of clearing up after yesterday's festivities (someone must've been sneaking empty bottles into our kitchen last night, there were hunners! That'll be another trip to the skips needed to recycle all those) and trying to shift a teeny-tiny hangover I plucked up the energy to head out for a head-clearing run on the bike, with some of my newly acquired bike related pressies from yesterday. Weather was perfect, considering what's been going on around the UK the past few days, and what's set to return again tomorrow by the look of things.

There was hardly a ripple on the water up at Gartmorn Dam as I dodged all the boxing day walkers and horse riders on a quick circuit. Stayed out 'til it was dark and the hangover had been well and truly chased.

Home for a leftover tatties and brussel sprouts combo followed by some of the fancy desserts that we couldn't manage yesterday, washed down with something non-alcoholic before settling down to catch up on some of the quality programming that was on TV yesterday. Should be done with that fairly quickly from what I'm seeing so far.
